<p>I opened <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/77983">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/77983</a> but I'm not sure if it should have been a clippy issue instead. Let me know if I should move it, it'll be an easy copy/paste.</p>

<p>Uplifting/New lints needs to be decided via MCP by the compiler team. So opening it in the Rust repo is the right approach to first discuss, if writing up an MCP is worth it.</p>
<p>Regarding the requested lint: I don't think it is ready to be uplifted, since it has many FPs. But I think a (FP free) version of this lint in rustc would be great.</p>
